Default What color stripes for a blue Z28?

I'm thinking of buying stripes for my blue 1999 Z28. I'm not sure what color to have. Silver would look great I'm sure... other possible colors include white and, why not, orange... What's your opinion on this and does anyone have pictures of a blue car with stripes?

Silver would look good, so would white. Black is a bit more subdued, but if you've got a black pilar and black wheels you could pull it off. Another option would be graphite. I think the dark nature of NBM and how dark graphite is, you could pull that off very well with some gunmetal rims.

Just hood and rear stripes. I'm thinking of buying the "Z29" stripes from 3rdgendecals.com, probably in silver...
